English translation

1509. It was narrated from Hishâm bin Ishâq bin 'Abdullâh bin Kinânah that his father said: "I asked Ibn 'Abbâs how the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ prayed for rain. He said: 'The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ went out (dressed) in a state of humility, beseeching and humble. He sat on the Minbar but he did not deliver a Khutbah like this Khutbah of yours, rather he kept supplicating, beseeching and saying the Takbîr, and he prayed two Rak'ahs as he used to do during the two 'Eîds.'" (Hasan)

Arabic text

1508 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ إِسْحَقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كِنَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ، فَقَالَ: «خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُتَبَذِّلًا، مُتَوَاضِعًا، مُتَضَرِّعًا، فَجَلَسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَلَمْ يَخْطُبْ خُطْبَتَكُمْ هَذِهِ، وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَزَلْ فِي الدُّعَاءِ وَالتَّضَرُّعِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ، وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ كَمَا كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ»

Commentary

Its resemblance to the the 'Eîd prayers consists in its number of Rak'ahs and the congregation, not in its entirety. The additional Takbîrât could be presented as corroborative evidence, because there is no mention of additional Takbîrât in other related narrations.
